About this event
Get hands-on with the National Museum of Ireland’s collections this Hallowe'en weekend.
Museum educators will facilitate an interactive session with objects from the Museum’s handling collection that reflect a history of life, disease and death.
Move out of the sun and into the Museum to learn all about how people fought illness and mourned losses in the Victorian era.
This drop-in session will take place on Friday 27 October and Sunday 29 October from 1pm – 3pm. Join at any time, and stay for as long as you like!
‘Remember my friend, that knowledge is stronger than memory, and we should not trust the weaker…’
